Modalities

  • Hellerwork is a powerful system of somatic education and structural bodywork, based on the inseparability of body, mind, and spirit.

    This type of work is a slow deep massage. Tension and strain in the muscles and connective tissue (fascia) are released, lengthened, and balanced. Skillful touch guide the practitioner to work at a level, which allows the body to feel safe and able to let go.

  • Grief massage is specifically designed to help individuals cope with loss (i.e. death, divorce, or other significant life changes).

    There is not only an emotional experience when grieving, but also a physical one. Grief can manifest in the body through tension, pain, fatigue, and other seemingly non-related symptoms.

    By providing a space where all emotions are welcome, supported, and nurtured, I will assist in the decompression of the nervous system by using my own series of customized techniques.

  • Reiki is a type of energy work.
    Qi, the life force that flows through all living things, can stagnate in the body where there has been physical injury or emotional pain. In time, these energy blocks can cause inflammation, lack of energy and focus, mood disruptions, and even illness.

    This type of energy work aims to help the flow of energy and remove blocks in a similar way to acupuncture or acupressure. Improving the flow of energy can enable relaxation, relieve pain, renew awareness and focus, improve sleep, and reduce inflammation.


I believe in a holistic approach to massage therapy.
By combining my knowledge of anatomy and kinesiology with a compassionate, client-centered philosophy, I am able to offer a unique blend of structural and energetic massage to relieve chronic physical and emotional pain.
Each session is tailored to the individual, ensuring a customized treatment plan that addresses specific concerns and promotes overall well-being.

60 Minute Massage $90

About Me

I’m a Central Pennsylvania native who took up residence in the Pacific Northwest in my early 20s. It was in Seattle that I studied massage therapy. Shortly after I became licensed I was taken under the wing of Joseph Hunton, one of this country’s leading Hellerwork therapists/instructors. His mentorship taught me to expand my understanding of how the body interacts with emotion as well as environment. I began to incorporate energy work and intuition. This is what makes my brand of body work so personal. My sessions are somewhat of a dance between your being and mine.
It is sacred work.

When not massaging, I’m most content when exploring and photographing nature, going on random adventures with friends, and goofing off with Utah and Nola (two of the best doggos in town).

“I’ve had lots of massage over the years and Amanda has a very special touch. Beyond the physical release, I’ve had deep emotional release as well. I felt completely safe to allow myself to be vulnerable. Her presence is so nurturing and kind. Best of all, she’s highly intuitive with her pressure so I can just relax and feel cared for. She even felt it when my third eye opened during a head massage! She described exactly what I was feeling because her magical hands could feel it too. She’s truly a gifted energy worker. Highly recommended!”

Sam M.

”Amanda has a special knack for not only relieving tension, but also identifying why. I had tried several different types of treatment, as well as massage therapists, to relieve my migraine issues, but Amanda was the one who was able to provide me with immediate relief. She also helped me locate where the root cause was. Do yourself a favor and book a session, you won’t regret it.”

Paul V.

“Amanda’s massage is extremely intuitive and it is not a boilerplate type massage. There’s a genuine care that can be felt and it is very inquisitive touch on the body.

I’ve dealt with shoulder discomfort for over 10 years on my left side and she made significant progress in only a couple sessions. Her knowledge of the body and layers of the shoulder was a blessing. The relief was significant and I hope to continue on the healing journey.

I would recommend Amanda to anyone seek pain relief or comfort as you can tell she is truly a healer by nature.”

Casey D.

“I’ve been worked on by Amanda a few times now in areas that I have trouble with. Mainly in my lower back. She is extremely knowledgeable and in tune with the muscular-skeletal system. She pays attention to detail in the areas that are giving you problems. I highly recommend her. She is very professional and not your run-of-the-mill massage therapist.”
